HI;

My question is; in cell C9 I have PAYNE, WILLIE; I want it changed to Willie Payne in C10.

I've managed to change it to WILLIE PAYNE using concatenate, but I want it to be Proper as well.

How do I do that?

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Board!

Try:

=PROPER(RIGHT(A1,FIND(",",A1))&" "&LEFT(A1,FIND(",",A1)-1))

Hope that helps,

If you've managed the first part then the second part is :

=PROPER(B9&" "&A9) for values housed in b9 and a9

hope it helps
